COMBINED PLUG AND FERRULE FOR WASH-TRAY CONNECTIONS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 383,982. dated June 5, 18 88.

' Application filed May 18, 1887. Serial No. 238,611. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CORNELIUS J. PHILLIPS, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Combined Plug and Ferrnle for Wash-Tray Connections, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide such construction of wash-tray and similar connections for connecting the tray with the waste-pipe as to avoid the use of a coupling, and such that any length of connection may be used.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of'reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.

Figure l is a detailed plan view of a part of a wash-tub or similar receptacle having my invention applied thereto, and Fig. 2 is a broken sectional elevation of the same on the line x or of Fig. l.

A represents the pipe'connection which conmeets the tray B with a waste-pipe. shown.) This pipe passes directly up through the aperture (1 in the tray B, and is externally screw-threaded below the tray 13, as shown at b. Upon the screwthreaded portion is placed the jam nut O, which may be screwed up firmly against the bottom of the tray B. The upper end of the pipe A is internally screwthreaded, as shown at e, and in it is screwed the plug-bushing orferrule D. This is externally screw-threaded to match the internal (Not.

scribed.

screw-th reads, e, and is formed with the grating eand with the upper flange, d. between which and the bottom of the tray the packingfis placed, as shown in Fig. 2. In the flange d are formed the small holes t z, for convenience in inserting and removing the ferrule D from pipe A. The outer surface of the pipe A, where it passes through the bottom of the tray, is plain, as shown at 0 and of slightly greater diameter than the lower part of the pipe, to fit and form a closejoint with the aperture in the bottom of the tray B.

The ferrule D by this construction is made to serve the double purpose of ferrule and holder for the pipe A in the tray, and it furnishes the resisting-flange for the drawing action upon the pipe A by the jam-nut O, and the pipe A may be made of any length continuous, and no coupling is required.

Having thus described my invention, whatI claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

The pipe A, internally screw-threaded at its upper end, enlarged in diameter at 0 and externally screwthreaded at b, in combination with the ferrule D, formed with flange d, and externallyscrewthreaded to enter the top of the pipe, and the jam-nut G, placed upon the. threads b, substantially as shown and de- OORNELIUS J.
